Chiropractic Care for Vertigo Relief: How Upper Cervical Adjustments Can Help

Are you struggling with vertigo or dizziness? Vertigo can be a debilitating condition, but there’s a non-invasive solution that targets the root cause: upper cervical chiropractic care. At Peak Chiropractic, our chiropractors use gentle adjustments to help relieve vertigo symptoms and improve balance.

What Causes Vertigo?

Vertigo is often caused by disruptions in the vestibular system, located in the inner ear, which helps control balance. However, misalignments in the upper cervical spine — specifically the atlas (C1) and axis (C2) vertebrae — can also lead to vertigo by interfering with nervous system function. When these vertebrae are misaligned, they place pressure on the brainstem and disrupt communication between the brain and body, leading to dizziness and a spinning sensation.

At Peak Chiropractic, we focus on correcting these upper cervical misalignments through precise, gentle adjustments, helping to restore normal function and relieve vertigo symptoms.

How Upper Cervical Chiropractic Works for Vertigo

At Peak Chiropractic, we use advanced diagnostic tools to evaluate your upper cervical spine. This includes 3D imaging to pinpoint any misalignments that could be contributing to your vertigo symptoms.

Once identified, we use gentle, targeted adjustments to realign the atlas and axis vertebrae, reducing pressure on the brainstem and allowing the nervous system to function properly. Patients often experience reduced vertigo symptoms after just a few sessions, and many find long-term relief through consistent care.

I have had more energy, less pain in all areas of my body, and I've been sleeping like a baby.
I truly don't know where to begin. I had never heard of upper cervical chiropractic care prior to meeting Dr. John and Dr. Kyara. However, I had been going to a chiropractor every two weeks for the last 18 years for "pain management". Over time, my body started to expect an adjustment right at that two week mark and the pain in my back, neck, and jaw became unbearable, even a few days before my regularly scheduled adjustment. I have always trusted chiropractic care, but one twisted neck adjustment left me with a long lasting clicking in my neck and the consistency of my symptoms left me feeling defeated, especially when the vertigo kicked in. I had no energy to get through even the slightest daily activities and I became frustrated at the thought of how much time and money I have spent to only receive such temporary relief. When I walked into Peak chiropractic, I was warmly welcomed by both doctors and was given a tour of the facility, where Dr. John showed me all of the technological recourses they would use to access my spine. The doctors took the time to educate me on EVERYTHING I was to expect in my healing journey and what to do to allow my body to hold the adjustments and heal itself. To my surprise, upper cervical care doesn't involve the twisting and cracking that causes more symptoms than what I came in with. In fact, I could expect to pain free in just a few short weeks (what a relief)! How is that possible you might ask? Trust me, I didn't believe it either. I was told that the misalignment in the top two bones of my spine were likely the cause of all the symptoms I had been experiencing since I was a kid. We immediately got to work and after only one adjustment, I felt like my body was able hold its adjustment longer than it has ever before. Mind you, I am still going through my program with Peak Chiropractic, but after this last adjustment, that consistent clicking in my neck that has never been absent before, left for the very first time. Even after these very few weeks, I have had more energy, less pain in all areas of my body, and I've been sleeping like a baby. I just wanted to scream it from the rooftops! For the first time in 18 years, I am feeling hopeful. I wish everyone knew about upper cervical care, so if you are someone who experiences similar symptoms, please go see Dr. John and Dr. Kyara. I promise your life is going to change. Mine definitely has!

My kiddo experiences migraines every day. 2 neurologists recommended pharmaceuticals. We haven’t found the one that works yet. Meanwhile I found Peak Chiropractic and learned about upper cervical adjustments. Check out the results in the photo! All 4 of us are going now.
